Crystal structure, Hirshfeld surface analysis and DFT studies of 6-bromo-3-(12-bromo­dodec­yl)-2-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-4H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine

The title compound, C24H30Br2N4O2, consists of a 2-(4-nitro­phen­yl)-4H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine entity with a 12-bromo­dodecyl substituent attached to the pyridine N atom. The middle eight-carbon portion of the side chain is planar to within 0.09 (1) Å and makes a dihedral angle of 21.9 (8)° with the mean plane of the imidazolo­pyridine moiety, giving the mol­ecule a V-shape. In the crystal, the imidazolo­pyridine units are associated through slipped π–π stacking inter­actions together with weak C—HPyr⋯ONtr and C—HBrmdc­yl⋯ONtr (Pyr = pyridine, Ntr = nitro and Brmdcyl = bromo­dodec­yl) hydrogen bonds. The 12-bromo­dodecyl chains overlap with each other between the stacks. The terminal –CH2Br group of the side chain shows disorder over two resolved sites in a 0.902 (3):0.098 (3) ratio. Hirshfeld surface analysis indicates that the most important contributions for the crystal packing are from H⋯H (48.1%), H⋯Br/Br⋯H (15.0%) and H⋯O/O⋯H (12.8%) inter­actions. The optimized mol­ecular structure, using density functional theory at the B3LYP/ 6–311 G(d,p) level, is compared with the experimentally determined structure in the solid state. The HOMO–LUMO behaviour was elucidated to determine the energy gap.

Less 'charismatic' species should not be forgotten in conservation
